Higher-order bulk-boundary correspondence for topological crystalline phases
L Trifunovic, PW Brouwer - Physical Review X, 2019 - APS
We study the bulk-boundary correspondence for topological crystalline phases, where the
crystalline symmetry is an order-two (anti) symmetry, unitary or antiunitary. We obtain a …

Quantitative mappings between symmetry and topology in solids
The study of spatial symmetries was accomplished during the last century and had greatly
improved our understanding of the properties of solids. Nowadays, the symmetry data of any …

Twisted bulk-boundary correspondence of fragile topology
ZD Song, L Elcoro, BA Bernevig - Science, 2020 - science.org
A topological insulator reveals its nontrivial bulk through the presence of gapless edge

Building crystalline topological phases from lower-dimensional states
We study the classification of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases with crystalline

Topological zero-dimensional defect and flux states in three-dimensional insulators
In insulating crystals, it was previously shown that defects with two fewer dimensions than
the bulk can bind topological electronic states. We here further extend the classification of …
